Friday, 22 December 2023 Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha stated in Kolkata on Friday that the security situation in J&K was "better than" that of Bengal. However, he swiftly corrected his statement, emphasizing that his remarks should not be politically misconstrued. He clarified that he intended to convey that the security situation in Kashmir is on par with that of Bengal. The Trinamool Congress (TMC) responded strongly, with leader Kunal Ghosh urging Sinha to "maintain the dignity of his chair" instead of making what he deemed as "distorted claims."
In the aftermath of the Reasi terror attack, Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha visited the injured pilgrims, providing them with comfort and support. The attack, which occurred on Sunday, involved terrorists opening fire on a bus carrying pilgrims, resulting in the bus veering off the road and falling into a deep gorge. Tragically, nine lives were lost and 37 others were injured in the incident. Sinha revealed that the bus driver was specifically targeted by the terrorists. In response, the police, CRPF, and army have launched a hunt operation to apprehend the perpetrators. To support the victims' families, Sinha announced financial assistance of Rs 10 lakhs to the families of the deceased and Rs 50,000 to the injured.

Recent bypolls across seven Indian states resulted in significant gains for the opposition INDIA bloc, which won 10 out of 13 assembly seats. The Congress party secured victories in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, while the Trinamool Congress swept all four seats in West Bengal. The BJP won two seats, including one in Madhya Pradesh. These results are seen as a boost for the opposition and may indicate shifting political dynamics ahead of future elections.
